“March 1977, I landed in Bologna, in an unknown city on the brink of civil war. Arranged, decisive stay with bits of memories, snippets, first names, fragments of effervescence: that of my awakening to World, to desire and that of a general rebellion that shook Bologna like a spasm.” Bologna Centrale began as a radio piece for France Culture, broadcast in March 2003, and is a kind of film diary, a retrospective autobiography, a sort of sentimental documentary about the late 1970s in Bologna where Dieutre lived for three years and returned 20 years later. The film also explores the Italy’s political history during the period when it was stricken by terrorism.
Pera Museum, in collaboration with Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), is one of the main venues for this year’s 15th Istanbul Biennial from 16 September to 12 November 2017. Through the biennial, we will be sharing detailed information about the artists and the artworks.
Our Doublethink Double vision exhibition’s title alludes to George Orwell’s seminal work 1984 and presents a selection that includes Tracey Emin, Marcel Dzama, Anselm Kiefer, Bruce Nauman, Raymond Pettibon, and Thomas Ruff, as well as Turkish artists, tracing the steps of pluralistic thought through works of art.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
